For thems that follow me for FastLED news - we released FastLED 3.3 today w/support for @PaulStoffregen's fantastic Teensy 4.0! (Seriously, I can't wait to put one of these in a project i'm spinning up)

For all my folks @defcon this weekend

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

CBP is detaining *American citizens.*

How would you feel trapped in a border camp, where guards wear face masks because the human odor is so strong?

When we allow the rights of some to be violated, the rights of all are not far behind.

@0xabad1dea welcome to why, in the past two years, I've taken to keeping my passport card in my wallet, so that I have proof of citizenship on me at all times... (and it may not even be enough in a case like this)

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Wayfair workers couldn’t stomach they were making beds to cage children.

They asked the company to stop. CEO said no.

Tomorrow, they‘re walking out.

This is what solidarity looks like - a reminder that everyday people have real power, as long as we’re brave enough to use it.

Friends - looking to step in to Infosec? Ian's looking to help out!

Tucker’s favorite movie to fuck me to is “The Help”. #TuckerCarlsonFucksHisRoomba

every creative person who’s been asked “where do you get your ideas?” has the same answer: we don’t know, probably a witch cursed us and we’re trying to profit as best we can before the magic wears off.

Whoops, I accidentally’d a pull request #fixyerperfforfree

[focalintent @focalintent]

@AmericanAir What are the odds that our flight crew will time out before we complete boarding in the morning. And don’t get me started on the cluster fuck that was waiting until most food options were closed before letting us off the plane. Or booking hotels that don’t have shuttles running?

[focalintent @focalintent]

@AmericanAir It’s more than just a late change in plans - you gave us a flight crew in Miami that was going to time out during our fuel refill in Phoenix, and then you replaced them with a flight crew that timed out before we could take off.

[Letters of Note @LettersOfNote]

*violent cough*

[Black Nerd Problems @BlkNrdProblems]

still waiting for this to be appealed btw

[Mekka 💉x7 @[email protected] @mekkaokerekebye]

Sorry to burst the Tony Stark / Bruce Wayne diletante-billionaire-genius myth. 🤷🏿‍♂️

But to me, this is much more inspiring:

SpaceX is the brainchild of a poor kid, lumberjack, rocket nerd, who's been working on this his whole life. 👍🏿👍🏿

[NASA's Dawn Mission @NASA_Dawn]

Eleven years. Billions of miles. Extended expeditions to two worlds from the dawn of our solar system, Vesta and Ceres. Now my mission has come to an end. To all the people who made this journey possible, thank you. https://t.co/IOjzKibSJR #DuskForDawn

I value my trans colleagues, and will ask my company to ensure we continue supporting them in our policies and benefits. Like Microsoft. #Allyship #BetterAllies

@zillow Forwarded one of the emails I’ve gotten to social@. Looking forward to not getting any more of them.

[focalintent @focalintent]

@zillow hey - because you folks don’t validate/verify email addresses, I’m now getting flooded with rental inquiries. I don’t even have anything to rent! Tempted to reply to them all with “your landlord to be doesn’t know their own email address! Run away!”
